Amanda Ansell (born 1976) is an English artist. She studied Fine Art at Norwich University of the Arts between 1995 and 1998 and then at the Slade School of Fine Art, University College London from 1998 to 2000. After living in London for seven years, she returned to her native Suffolk in 2006 to begin an artist residency at Firstsite, Colchester.

Her paintings are abstract and make use of a limited palette to explore the relationship between artist and nature.
